Fetch the Bolt Cutters, 100%

I thought it might be the first few times I listened to it - but I've rarely felt the urge to return to it.  I've probably listened to Haim and Laura Malling more.

Just listened to 6 music revealing their list on BBC iPlayer.

The BC Camplight and Nadine Shah songs they played feel like classics to me already, find it crazy to think they came out this year.

Hadn't heard the Cornershop song before, but it sort of felt like a modern take on the Kinks. I really liked it, will need to try to listen to the rest of the album.

I've tried to listen to the Cornershop one but it has some weird sounds in it that make my dogs bark!! Next time I'm off for a walk by myself I'll have to listen to it because it causes chaos in the house!!

Have they heard Fetch The Bolt Cutters? That has actual dogs barking and my dog goes mad for it.

Yes and for once strangely not bothered by it. Normally they react to all animal noises and if they see them on tv they have to go out to the garden to investigate. They were gifted with looks not brains

Aye my dolphin goes mental at the end of I Want You To Love Me.

Dolphin - Is that your dogs name or do you have really exotic pets??

It was just a shit joke about her doing a dolphin noise at the end of that song.

Sounds absolutely beautiful on vinyl.

I don't know if there are any from this year that will become all time classics, but there's definitely a load that I'll still be listening to beyond 2020.

My bad decided to listen to it again today as hadn't listened to it in a while and they both went nuts. Must have just been lucky before and played it at times when they were too tired to care or more likely Nuala the instigator of most barking wasn't around!!

Back in the day Been Caught Stealin' was known to send my dog apoplectic.

It's funny the things that set them off but always amazes me that after all these years they still think it's worth going out in the garden to try and find the source of the noise.

There is a high frequency note on Ambient 1: Music for Airports that will make a dog shit where it is standing.

There's a song called Scooby Doo Can Doo-Doo on Blood Sugar Sex Magick

I think I'll avoid that one then unless I play it to them outside in which case that could be genius. You don't happen to know the name of the track do you??

Most of the albums I was excited for this year I've been unfortunately dissatisfied with The Strokes, Haim, Tame Impala and Idles are a few examples. 

The Strokes en HAIM surpassed my expectations actually. The New Abnormal and Women In Music Pt III are definitely on my AOTY list.

Agree on IDLES and Tame though.

I can’t remember, sorry.

The lack of Owen Pallet on these lists is going to break my heart

I like the Tame Impala album as background music whilst I'm working. Though that's kind of damning it with faint praise, as part of the reason I find it good to work to is it never really fully grabs your attention.

Definitely preferred their earlier stuff. Ironically, tame probably is a good word to describe the recent album. Needs more impala

Given it looks like I'm going to be doing the square root of feck all this Christmas is anyone keen for doing the eFestivals albums and tracks of the year thing again?

As previous I'll start the thread, do the counting and post the forums top tens around Christmas Eve.
